Top Junipero Serra Museum Hotel Reviews

Crowne Plaza San Diego - Mission Valley by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed here on multiple visits. Property is well maintained with Hawaiian theme and water features that create a nice atmosphere. Abby at the front desk was awesome. She reminded me and assisted with checking for my IHG account that saved us $10 a night on parking. Lobby bar has great bartenders that were very prompt and sociable. Location is central to most locations with easy freeway access. Rooms will be due for updating soon. Like carpet, paint, and furniture. Could use some chairs on the balcony. Will definitely stay again."

The Alcala Hotel Mission Valley/Seaworld

10/10 Excellent

The staff was friendly and helpful whenever I needed anything, and check-in and check-out were easy. I also appreciated how comfortable and welcoming the property felt throughout my stay. I would definitely consider staying here again and would recommend it to anyone visiting the area."
